HONDA CBR1100XX Super Blackbird 1997 Introduction | Reliving the Old Days of Honda Collection Hall

Motorcycle & Industry

The Honda Collection Hall is a museum for four-wheeled and two-wheeled vehicles located in Twin Ring Motegi, Haga-gun, Tochigi Prefecture. It was opened in March 1998 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Honda Motor Company and to convey the spirit of Honda's origins to many visitors. In addition, the company is conducting a riding test to see if the motorcycle is actually performing well. A video of the test ride was taken to allow you to see many of the models in action. We've compiled those videos, broken down by age and displacement, into a feature. Your first motorcycle may be here. We invite you to relive the old days of your fascination with motorcycles and enjoy the motorcycle life again.

In recent years, big-bore, high-power, over 1-liter supersport models with overwhelming performance have been attracting attention, especially in the European market.

In 1986, Honda introduced the CBR1000F in the US and European markets, a bike that covers a wide range of riding styles from touring to sport riding with its high overall performance. This motorcycle, with its numerous world-class performance features such as power, balance, handling, and comfort when cruising long distances, invited European riders into the world of big machines and laid the foundation for today's liter bike boom.

In 1991, Honda introduced the CBR900RR Fireblade in Europe, featuring a lightweight and compact 893cc power unit in a 600cc-class chassis. The CBR900RR Fireblade won overwhelming support for its performance and high dynamic capability.

Subsequently, Honda's big machine lineup continued to evolve, with the popular CBR900RR Fireblade constantly being upgraded with the latest technology, and the '93 CBR1000F becoming the world's first model to feature a Dual Combined Brake System for the front and rear wheels. The '93 CBR1000F was the first model in the world to adopt a dual combined brake system for the front and rear wheels, further advancing the evolution of the braking system, and we have always incorporated the latest technology.

The CBR1100XX Super Blackbird is the world's highest performance supersport model, not only in terms of power and top speed, but also in terms of performance and quality.
